You have limescale build up on your jets. Run it a few times empty, put about 3 cups of vinegar in the dishwasher before you start the cycle. Also, run it on it's hottest temp too. It will stink up your house like vinegar, but it worked on mine. This also works in coffee pots!!

Why is there residue on my dishes when the dishwasher is done cleaning

The cause of this problem could be limescale or salt residues. If the residue can easily be wiped off with a finger, it is likely too much salt. If the residue is difficult to remove and comes off with vinegar, it is likely limescale (hard water build-up).May 29, 2023
